Grilled fennel salad

I love fennel. It is my currently my favorite vegetable. It is so easy to prepare and has a sweet taste like licorice. I like cooking it until it becomes charred with some lemon. Watermelon radish is such a pretty vegetable. The colors of vegetables are so vibrant and amazing. I feel that watermelon radish does taste similar to your standard red radish (maybe less spicy?). There are so many different types of radishes out there. I love trying new fruits and veggies. If you can’t find watermelon radish in your supermarket, any radish will do in this recipe. Hope you enjoy it.
